Dam Store and entrance to BigT hwy34. Most of the road looks like this in Winter...shady. Not fun with mag chloride, gravel and ice patches here and there, because the sun doesn't see the road again until late Spring. So, it was an easy beginning to my long lunch ride.

Lily Lake

Yep, that's ice on the lake.

I saw a guy on a red and black gixxer (I think) with all black leathers going in the opposite direction I was going on hwy7 at Lily Lake. Saw him again at the bottom of hwy7 as I was coming down and he was going back up after coming down hwy36. I think he was doing a circuit today. Fun stuff.

Heading home

Musta been a 1337 road crew that painted that on the road. Nothing like laughing all the way home...lol

One last thing...yep, I rode down hwy7. Damn fricken fun, too. I had someone tagging along before we got to the down portion of 7, though. It's one thing to have a complete stranger follow you through the twisties, but then it's another thing entirely to all of a sudden not see his light as you come out of bottom narrows. He was there, but I guess he decided to pull off. Not sure if I was going too slow, cuz I was wearing my jeans today, or maybe he was doing the circuit like the guy on the red and black gixxer. Only reason I did not go back to check on him was because other vehicles were in the area. That and then I woulda been the creepy one coming back to check on him if he hadn't lost it.

Anyhoo, nice ride...again...

Meh...couldn't take the sunshine through my windows at home. Made sure to get permission from the boss before I took off. Just means I'll be working for a little while longer this evening on some catch-up work.:)

Love you all. And yeah...maybe I was just a tad jealous yesterday when I finally left my building at 4 and it felt absolutely amazing outside. So, maybe that had something to do with my urges today...maybe...;)

Yep...it's smooth through there now. Nice new wider bridge and new pavement.

I hit lefthand, 7, P2P and Canyon today and had a great time.. Lefthand got a little gravely towards the top, but was an otherwise great day!

I HATE ALL OF YOU IN THE NICEST WAY POSSIBLE. I really need to get out and play

Yep, you do. Too bad it's so nasty out now. The higher roads won't be too clean this weekend, even though it's supposed to clear up...but, maybe there will be a road or two you will be able to play on.

Much love to both you and Cat.

Hmmm...seems to me, someone wants to continue to be "sick in bed"...lol...(what are ya, nuts?!!!)

I was sick over the weekend. Haven't been sick in years. Must be the change in jobs. But, it didn't keep me from riding on Sunday with everyone. I just hope no one I rode with caught the sniffles.

I wonder if anyone in that neighborhood where the stop sign is has noticed the discrepancy, or if they're happy with it...maybe they enjoy the laugh as much as I did;-)
